<p>A predefined Serializer that handles non-null String whereby Strings are serialized to a UTF-8 encoded format. The Serializer does <emph>not</emph> store the String's size, thereby preventing it from being used as a GroupSerializer. <p> This Serializer hashes Strings using the original hash code method as opposed to the <code><a href="-s-t-r-i-n-g.html">Serializer#STRING</a></code> Serializer. </p>
<p> If a <code>null</code> value is passed to the Serializer, a NullPointerException will be thrown. </p>
